THE HEART BEHIND THE HERD
Our team is made up of passionate, experienced horse advocates dedicated to rescue, care, and healing. Get to know the incredible people working behind the scenes — and in the barns — to give horses a second chance.
Every milestone marks our unwavering commitment to saving, healing, and rehoming horses in need — one hoofbeat at a time.
It all began with one horse in need — and a group of compassionate people determined to help. Far View Horse Rescue was born.
With growing support and community involvement, we expanded our facilities and outreach to take in more horses and volunteers.
Our foster, adoption, and youth programs took shape, helping us create deeper connections between horses and people.
Today, we’re more committed than ever — building a sustainable future for rescued horses through education, advocacy, and care.

Passionate, experienced, and deeply committed to horse rescue — our team brings together a unique blend of knowledge, compassion, and care. From rehabilitation to rehoming, they make every transformation possible.
FOUNDER & DIRECTOR
I am blessed to be surrounded by beautiful horses and volunteers! My
life is an amazing journey of teaching and learning and my curiosity just continues to grow, searching for how best we can help our rescues and wild horses due to the circumstances that we have put them in. As a retired teacher and mother of two beautiful boys, I know the importance of Commitment, Communication and Confidence, focusing on those ideals with everything we do at the rescue.
VICE CHAIRMAN
Simply said I absolutely love FVHRR and everything this Rescue does for our equines in need. It is an incredible organization filled with beautiful people doing amazing things for these animals. With a background in non-profit work, I have an extensive history in fundraising, grant writing and more and have helped with numerous successful rescue events and programs we now hold annually. On
my own horse journey here, I have been blessed to work closely with one of our BLM mustangs, Cosmo.
SECRETARY
I’ve enjoyed initiating the Read-With-A-Donkey program at FVHRR and I help feed and clean weekly. My joy comes from the solitude of working with our creatures and learning at the many clinics offered. I am in training as a UK Reiki Federation Board Certified Animal Practitioner so will be doing a lot of Reiki energy work this coming summer!my own horse journey here, I have been blessed to work closely with one of our BLM mustangs, Cosmo.
